Bard reminds me a lot drg with all the oGCDs to weave in, though I'm not a particular fan of WM yet. It's not bad but it drastically changes the way you play prior to obtaining it.

As for melee, I like monk nearly as much as drg, the rotation is pretty simple (and it's basically the same as it is at lv50, no drastic changes like brd or drg).
